Our take

El Bongo de Chinauta is an apartment in Fusagasuga, Fusagasugá & Silvania. It has a guest rating of 9.8/10 from 10 reviews. It is about 47 km (29 miles) from central Bogotá as the crow flies, a countryside stay rather than a city base. The airport is about 48 km away in a straight line; Bogotá traffic decides the real trip. We still have to check heating and street noise here; until then those checks show as Not yet checked.
